2020 US Senate Election-If former Democratic US Senators Begich-AK,Udall-CO,and Hagan-NC were to

seek a rematch against Sullivan (R-AK),Gardner (R-CO),and Tillis (R-NC), in 2020, Could these former Democratic US Senators win?
I would say yes on Udall-CO and Hagan-NC but maybe on Begich-AK.
Udall-CO and Hagan-NC will benefit from the 2020 Democratic Presidential nominee's coattails. Democrats have a greater than 50 percent chance of winning CO and NC at the Presidential level. Begich-AK will need a national Democratic wave to win.

Democrats could win in IA-if Vilsack-D is the nominee and MT-if Bullock-D is the nominee.
Democrats will need Stanton-D to run in the AZ Special and Ossoff-D to run in GA.
Democrats will need a Coons/Donnelly type candidate to run in ME-assuming Collins-R looses in the Republican primary to the alt-right.
Democrats could end up with 53 to 58 US Senate Seats after 2020 depending on what happens in AZ,IN,MO,OH,and WV in 2018.
